Community Tasting Note

95 Points

Monday, February 13, 2017 - Had a few bottles in 2015, 2016 and early 2017.

Deep ruby. Perfumed nose of blackcurrant, leather, tobacco, earth. Aerated in glass for 1.5 hours and the tannins are almost resolved. But it is also approachable if PnP.

Opulent flavours of blackcurrant, tobacco and leather. Might be a bit too blackcurrant driven to fans of traditional Bdx fans. Medium (+) acidity is just enough to keep the wine fresh. Full bodied with nice long finish.
